Revenge of the Bad Similes Story!

I’ve always wanted to do one of those fun blog entries where everyone contributes a line or two of a story and we keep going until God only knows what we’ve come up with. Anyone wanna play? Yesterday’s adventures with the Rodale Synonym Finder gave me an idea.

Let’s make a really, really, BAD story. One with the WORST similes we can think of. The rules are simple. Write a line or two of the story but add a horrible simile to it. Feel free to add smilies.

I’ll start with a few lines:

He saw her from across the room, his eyes meeting hers for the first time like two strangers who have just been introduced. :confused2:

“Julia!” he called out, with the enthusiasm of a twelve-year-old about to see Episode III of Star Wars.:starwars:

“Get lost, Harold,” she retorted, like a woman squashing a bug beneath her steely boot. :fryingpan:

The next line is yours…
